Evaluation test of applicability of Compressed Air Foam fire extinguishing system for train fire at rescue station in Subsea tunnel

Simulation of Metro Train Fire in an Underground Station of Tehran Metro Line 7

In this research a fire scenario was simulated in one of the stations of the line 7 of Tehran's subway system. The Line 7 is under construction and the ventilation system is under design. Fire was set for a stopping metro train at the platform of the station. A 160 meter length eight-car metro train with the forth wagon on the fire was studied. The heat release rate is based on a quadratic f...

The Application of Concurrent Engineering in the Installation of Foam Fire Extinguishing Piping System

Although the concept of concurrent engineering has been widely applied in the manufacturing industry, there is growing awareness and interest in the adoption of Concurrent Engineering (CE) in the Construction Industry because CE has the potential to make construction projects less fragmented, reduce project duration, improve project quality, reduce total project cost and increase project compet...

Crisis Management Evaluation: Formalisation & Analysis Of Communication During Fire Incident In Amsterdam Airport Train Tunnel

Communication and inter-organizational coordination in crisis management are of uttermost important for all processes and can lead to fast and effective averting or ending of a crisis situation. In this paper, a real world incident of a fire in the Amsterdam Airport Schiphol train tunnel was formalised, based on a public inquiry report, and subsequently, the emergency response to the incident w...

Fire and Explosion Prevention in Compressed Air Plants

مدل سازی هیدرولیکی شبکه آتش نشانی یک نیروگاه سیکل ترکیبی با رویکرد ارزیابی و تحلیل کارایی سیستم اطفاء حریق

Background and aims: Providing the adequate flow and water pressure in the firefighting network of the power plants requires the proper design and analysis of the firefighting system. This study aimed to model and hydraulic analysis the fire network in a combined cycle power plant to determine the network efficiency in the extinguishing of the possible fire. Methods: In the present study, the ...
